Receive Not Our Witness

Read John 1-3

John 3:11 says, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness."  We don’t always know who to believe.  We start off believing everybody, only to discover the hard way that not everyone can be trusted—not everyone tells the truth.

Jesus came up against this problem.  People didn’t always believe what He said.  Sometimes they wanted more of an explanation, other times doubting Him outright.

We may not be able to win any theological arguments with others seeking to know more about God or just trying to frustrate us, but we own our testimonies.  We know what God has done for us.  Whether or not someone believes us, they can’t take that away from us.

Tomorrow’s reading: John 4-6
